need help getting emancipation


i live in Colorado, i am 17 years old && i am trying to get emancipated.
i have tried to do research but i keep thinking of the same problem.
i dont think my parents would give consent towards me getting emancipated.
the thing is i cannot do this, day in and day out i am depressed.
i dont want to go into detail but there is alot of negative talk & actions done toward me
where i feel like it isnt needed. i have had a steady job for 2 years now & i am very much capable of taking care of myself. i get good grades & im not into the party scene or anything. i jus dont know if this is at all possible without there consent, but i need out

You managed to survive seventeen years living with your parents, so one more certainly can't be your breaking point can it?

Suck it up and stick it out. It will go by faster than you think,,,

Not all states will emancipate a minor at all and if I am not mistaken Colorado is one of those states that will not.
